This Azure-based virtual machine comes pre-configured with the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 (LVM) image, hardened to help address NIST 800-171 compliance requirements for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) in non-federal systems.

NIST SP 800-171, titled "Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations," is a security framework developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It outlines guidelines for safeguarding CUI across organizations that operate outside the federal government.

Implementation:

Applicability: Applies to contractors and service providers that handle CUI under federal contracts or agreements.
Compliance: Requires implementation of 110 security requirements and the ability to demonstrate compliance through assessments or audits.
Self-Assessment: Organizations are responsible for conducting regular self-assessments and maintaining documentation of compliance status.

Benefits of Adopting NIST 800-171:

Enhanced Security: Strengthens protection of sensitive data against cyber threats and unauthorized access.
Federal Contracting: A prerequisite for working with U.S. government agencies or handling federally funded projects.
Risk Management: Helps organizations identify, reduce, and manage risks associated with storing and handling CUI.

Key Objectives of NIST 800-171:

Protect CUI: Ensures confidentiality of CUI in transit and at rest on non-federal information systems.
Enhance Security: Implements structured controls to improve security posture and reduce data exposure risks.
